A Very English Christmas by Keira Andrews - I haven't read the stories this short is connected to but that didn't impact on my enjoyment of this very cute story.

Mr Perfect's Christmas by Joanna Chambers - Perfect. *Happy sigh*

The Christmas Ship by Amy Jo Cousins - So cute.

That Thing by Megan Erickson - my only issue with this is the dual first person pov. It's possibly my least favourite thing. The story and the characters were great, sweet and hot, with a true HEA. But too often I was distracted trying to remember whose pov we were in.

Just Like Heaven by Suki Fleet - a damaged soul with armour around his heart and a sweet virgin. Gorgeous.

Not Your Grandfather's Magic by Kaje Harper - Aww, poor Zeb. Although...maybe not. This was really sweet, bittersweet in places, but overall left me warm and fuzzy. And I loved the way the two guys met!


Bottle Boys by Anyta Sunday - I worried about this one at the beginning. So many characters introduced in the first few paragraphs. But within a few pages my worries settled down and I fell in love with this super sweet story. Only two complaints: I struggled to understand why in particular it was set in Germany, it didn't feel particularly European to me, and what was going on with Marco?

Overall an exceptional anthology with well written stories, just sweet enough for the season. Highly recommended for some holiday cheer.

Only one story in this collection was what I wanted...perhaps someday I will read the others.

A Very English Christmas" by Keira Andrews was just what I needed to start off this Christmas Eve. So wonderful to see these sweet boys again and yes I even teared up. They are just perfect.
